6 days ago I got two off-centre tongue piercings (venoms). They were healing well, and my speech was pretty much back to normal. Eating was relatively pain-free, albeit a bit awkward. Last night I was meeting my parents for dinner in a local restaurant. Now, I don't have many piercings. I had 13 last night: just my lobes, a daith, my navel and venoms. Dinner started off well, but my parents soon noticed my venoms. Pretty soon I was getting grief about them, which soon spread to the rest of my piercings. Then it went on to my attittude on ... read more

Ever since seeing a photo of a girl with a venoms on bme, I wanted them. I spent hours looking at photos and reading about them, before finally contacting a piercing studio I had been to many times before in my hometown to see how much they would charge. However, the response I got back was that they wouldn't perform this piercing because it is too risky!

I finally got venoms today ^_^ It was so fucking amazing. These are my 18th piercings. I have dahlias, snake bites, angel bites, septum, eyebrow, 5/8 ear lobes, navel, and nipple piercings, and now venoms.

I had to explain to him, and then he said that those were too risky and he wouldn't do them. I was ... read more

I've always been a big fan of unusual things; I love people reacting to me like they've never seen something before, so obviously I've never been a big fan of central tongue piercings. I wanted to push my love of unusual piercings even further, and after looking around online, I fell in love with the idea of venoms. I'd never seen anyone in real life with them before, and they looked so much sexier and attractive than a silly old central one. Being 16 and still at school, I didn't have much money, so I decided to get them done ... read more

This is old. But I remember I kept track of my experiance and wanted to share it. Thursday, February 4th, 2010. I made plans with my friends to get my piercings, I was supposed to go to a different piercer to get them done, but, he wound up saying there were to many complications with the process and decided to not do it. So I went to a place I knew would. three or four days earlier I went over to tattoo nation here in San Antonio with my friend. it was 45$ for each individual one. but, as I ... read more
